I've got a linux black box with my programs in it
Got a bash, using twofish and a login
When I'm a good OP they sometimes throw me a like in.

I got elastic cloud keepin' my sites on
Got those stolen source codes
I got thirteen panels that sit on the display to choose from
I've got unending nights
And I've got petabytes
I got amazing powers of the super cow
And that is how I know
When I try to get through
On the terminal to UEK
There'll be no files in /home

I've got directory rwx perm.
And the inevitable enroll forms
All down the front of my favorite satin shirt.
I've got caffeine stains on my teeth.
I've got a mining pool and blockchain.
Got a grand keyboard to prop up Oracle remains.

I've got wild staring eyes
And I've got a strong urge to fry
'cause I got no heatsink on the CPU
Ooh...racle when I pick up the logs
there's still no files in /home
